Funny you should mention that Raf.
Guess who organised it?

Actually you caused it yourself, by voting for Boris.
It is called the moth effect, as opposed to the butterfly effect

The Thatcher era was incredibly hard for everyone living through it. She privatized everything she could and people were scared of losing their jobs - if they had one. Scotland had some sort of ridiculously high unemployment rate. I didn't know one person who had a job when I was growing up. It was all unemployment and welfare. I think in retrospect she dragged the country out of the dark ages.
Oh and, don't diss the Unions. They've helped us achieve a great many things, but they too need to evolve or they'll go the way of the dinosaur and then we'll be in a right pickle.

Yeh, she keeps having to have explained to her that her husband is dead.
I can't imagine that - you've got the lifetime of memories together, and you feel a bit lonely, you look round for your husband...'where is he?', you ask,...but he's gone... again and again.
Dementia is really one of the worst worst things you could ever encounter..
I recently watched a close family member become delirious by being riddle with cancer, which took everything from him - he didn't know where or who he was, totally wrecked him, the end was really a relief from his endless suffering.. Although I was brought up in a area and a social class that taught me to hate Maggie, I hope she and her loved ones find some relief from the long goodbye.
